Notes

• Substitutions: Greek yogurt or sour cream can replace mayonnaise for a lighter option.

• Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free crackers instead of Ritz.

• Extra Crispiness: Broil for the last 1-2 minutes of baking for added crunch, watching carefully to prevent burning.

• Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in an oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
